Raine turned around and caught sight of a lady with a drop-dead gorgeous appearance approaching them. The lady was dressed in a red, tiny-strapped body con dress with a small thigh slit which revealed her smooth yet fleshy thighs.
Her movements were elegant and graceful yet she exuded an aura of both pride and confidence. In the almost quiet dessert shop, her red heels made a constant clinking sound as she slowly approached them with swaying hips.
Her long brown hair was curled which dangled behind her back and shoulders as she moved and it complimented her smokey makeup with dark red lipstick which added more to her charm. She had a red purse clutched in her left hand and a pair of ruby earrings with a necklace of the same set which hung low on her exposed neck.
With her gorgeous appearance, she attracted the attention of almost all the men in the dessert shop, and her curvy yet tender body gave her the looks of an alluring seductress. She had a figure that could haunt every man's dreams.
Seeing her looks, Raine was stunned for a moment. If she was this moved by a lady, she wondered what would be the reaction of all men who saw this lady in red and as expected, when she traveled her gaze round the dessert shop she wasn't too surprised to see all the men present including the waiters gawking at her.
Subconsciously, she also turned towards Jedrek, preparing herself to see him gawking at the lady too but to her greatest dismay, his gaze on the lady was flat and expressionless as if he was already used to it and judging from the way the lady intimately called his name, they seemed close...too close but Raine couldn't comprehend the relationship between them yet.
By the time the lady got to their table, her red-painted lips formed a sweet smile completely ignoring Raine.
"Long time no see, Jed," she flipped her long curly hair slightly revealing her neck and exposed collarbone.
Jedrek returned her greeting with a small nod, "I didn't expect to see you here, Asra."
Asra smiled, revealing her perfect set of pure white teeth, "Well, the old man's birthday is approaching and as always he requested for some locally made tea set. It's only my duty to fulfill his wishes. But lately, I have been craving some desserts, and hearing that this place had some good reviews, I decided to try it out. Who would have thought that I would bump into you here, Jed?"
Jedrek smiled at her explanation but the smile didn't reach his eyes. He only turned and resulted in glancing at Raine instead who pretended to be rather oblivious to whatever is happening at their table right now.
Asra noticed Jedrek's attention was shifted and so for the first time, she turned to look at Raine. Her eyes studied Raine's features for a while and then a hidden glint flashed in her eyes.
"Although the old man requested for material things on his birthday this year, he also wishes that he could see you completing your task. I always wondered what's keeping you delayed but this..."
As she said that, Jedrek's expression immediately darkened. Asra felt the change in his demeanor and her eyes glimmered.
Afterwards, she continued with a much calmer tone, "Anyways, the old man wants everyone to be present for his birthday and since you haven't been home for a long time now, I hope you'll be attending his birthday," her voice was sweet and smooth with an endearing feature which could lure any man to her just by a word.
Jedrek calmed down after a while and nodded subtly, "Hmmm, I'll be there."
"And he also wants to know the progress of your work," her voice was extremely low as she whispered while casting a sidelong glance towards Raine with a small smile on her lips.
She then smiled sweetly and clutched her purse, "It's getting late Jed, I'll head back first. Hope to see you soon," she let out a confident smile as she waved and with a flip of her hair, she slowly walked out of the dessert shop all the while carrying the lustful gazes of the men.
